Do no hesitate to book this house. The pictures don't do the surroundings or the house justice. We were able to make dinner and the kitchen had everything we needed and we were all able to sit around the table. It was the perfect place for our group and every single one of us woke up and said it was such a great sleep. The mattresses and bedding were all really comfortable. We built a fire and had the perfect winter night full of warmth and friendship that was only made better by the house we were staying in. If you're on the fence, book it and look forward to a great stay!

The home was absolutely perfect for what we needed. We had 3 generations staying there for Christmas with family. My father has a difficulty with balance and walking. The layout of the house allowed him to move through the main level with his wheelchair. It was also very easy for him to get into the house, which was very important to us. This allowed him to relax and enjoy himself. Brittany was extremely prompt with her communication, and easy to work with. At the end of the evening we had the inside lights off, allowing us a beautiful view of the backyard…it was so peaceful with two deer walking through. We are looking forward to booking this house during the summer so we can enjoy the sun room and backyard.

La cabaña está en muy buenas condiciones, las recámaras tienen un tamaño perfecto. Las camas están súper cómodas y limpias. Gracias, Brittany por siempre estar al pendiente y resolver nuestras dudas.

I loved our stay in Wausau at Brittany’s cottage! It was lovely and near everything we needed and within driving distance of food, stores, and the Grand Theater. We used the air hockey table a lot as soon as we got there. Everything was clean, findable, and Brittany even accommodated us last minute for an earlier check-in due to snowy weather. I want to come back again in warmer weather!
